I arrived home inspired but coming off a red eye, I had no time, desire or energy to cook. Instead I made a quick yogurt parfait. Chobani was an exhibitor at the conference and they had a yogurt bar that was to die for! It convinced me that I don’t need to buy cups of artificially sweetened yogurt. A tub of fat free greek, some fresh fruit a little honey is amazing!

So on the way home from the airport I stopped at the grocery store to pick up a few supplies instead of the the drive-thru and made myself an amazing breakfast. Here’s what I did…

I've been using plain Chobani lately too (stay tuned for my post). I never would have thought to use coooa nibs -- I will give that a try, but I cannot keep Cinnamon Toast Crunch in my house .... Reply

I have a hard time with it too but it's the only "suga cereal" I buy for the boys. SO it's a treat every few months. Thankfully my husband usually finishes before I get a chance to have a bowl. lol Reply

Oh man, you were in my city and I didn't even know it! =(
I love plain Greek yogurt, but usually mix it with frozen berries because it sorta goes all icecream-like. Yum. Reply

Yiu inspired me to finally get into smoothies. Even though your post is about parfait I wanted to share. I bought a blender called the nutribullet. It's like the magic bullet on steroids. I had kale, frozen mango chunks, some chia, and some kefir. Voila! Yum. I did add a tsp of cocoa powder after. I love the special dark. Thanks for the inspiration. I lost 65 lbs, and have to lose like 40 more and I've been stuck. I'm hoping smoothies with change things up a bit. Reply
